Steam NextFest is TODAY and it would mean the world to us if you would play our demo and wishlist our game!
It's about a shy girl who accidentally becomes the mayor of a haunted ghost town full of scary monsters. By solving puzzles, playing minigames, and repairing buildings, she gradually becomes brave enough to talk to the monsters, and discovers that they're actually friendly, and would love to join her town and help her rebuild it.
Happy #WishlistWednesday, everyone!
Mayor May Knott will be showcased at Steam NextFest later this month, and it would mean the world to us if you could wishlist our little indie game!
Get scared by monsters! Make friends with monsters! Build a happy little town... full of monsters!

So show me your jumpscare gross-ups!
I've attached some examples of my "programmer art" ones that are already in the game, but I'd prefer to see ones that you've already made or ones for different characters than have you go to the trouble of making ones for these characters.

What does that mean??? Well, in Mayor May Knott, May sometimes gets scared by the monsters in the game and runs away. WHEN she gets scared, there's a full-screen, gross-up "jumpscare" image of that monster.
"Gross ups" are like the highly-detailed still images that sometimes appear in Spongebob or Ren and Stimpy.

Hi Mastodons! LOOOOONG time no post!
Happily, Mayor May Knott is nearing the end of production, and we've hired some professional artists to get us past the finish line and make the art look... well... professional.
One thing we really need, however, is a "jumpscare gross-up" artist, and maybe that's you!
